Liverpool target Naby Keita is refusing to get carried away with speculation linking him with a big money move to Anfield and feels comfortable at RB Leipzig, according to his coach Ralph Hasenhutti.

Jurgen Klopp has been strongly linked with a move for the talented midfielder who remains one of his major targets and saw a £57million bid turned down by the German club last week.

According to the Liverpool Echo , the Reds are set to return with a higher bid in the coming week, even though RB Leipzing are adamant that the Guinea international is not for sale.

The club's sporting director Ralf Rangnick, who is reportedly on holiday, has previously said there is “no pain threshold” that would see them part with the 22-year-old.

Having finished second to Bayern Munich last season, Leipzig have seen interest in both Keita and Swedish playmaker Emil Forsberg, who has been linked with a move to AC Milan.

Hasenhuttl admits he is flattered by the attraction his top stars are gaining from across Europe, but insists both are happy to remain at their current side.

"You can tell them (the interested clubs) that they feel very comfortable and look forward to the new season,” he told German magazine Kicker. “They know very well what they have with us.

“Our goal is to become a large and established club.

“It is a huge compliment for us that we have aroused such desires.

"But it is not the purpose and purpose of our journey to let our players get their first offer.

“Our goal is to become a large and established club, and that is what we have done this summer, a significant step towards it."

Despite Husenhuttl's comments, Keita is keen on a move to Anfield and wants to link up with Jurgen Klopp on Merseyside.

Klopp has been frustrated in his attempts to bring both Keita and Virgil van Dijk to the club this summer, although he has managed to break the club record fee with the £36.9million capture of Mohamed Salah.
